Loading the Manual Feeder

The manual feeder is located at the front of your printer and can only feed one sheet of print media at a time. You can use the manual feeder to make quick runs of paper types or sizes that are not currently loaded in the paper tray. To load the manual feeder:
1
Place a sheet of the selected print media, print side facing up, at the center of the manual feeder, but only to the point where its leading edge can contact the paper guides. Otherwise, the printer will engage the print media too soon and skew the print job. Adjust the paper guides to the print medias width.
Hold both sides of the print media close to the manual feeder and push it into the printer until it automatically engages. There is a brief pause between the time the printer engages the print media and when it feeds into the printer.
22
Loading Paper
NOTICE: Do not force the print media into the feeder. Forcing the media causes jams.
Insert envelopes with the flap side face down and with the stamp area on the top right side. Hold transparencies by the edges and avoid touching the print side. Oils from your fingers that are deposited on the transparency can affect print quality. Load letterhead face-up, with the top of the sheet entering the printer first. If you experience problems with paper feed, turn the paper around.
Using the Rear Exit

The single-sheet rear exit provides a straight-through paper path to help reduce curling and potential jams. This is especially useful for specialty media, such as transparencies, envelopes, labels, card stock, or index cards. To use the rear exit, simply open the rear exit door. When the rear exit door is open, all print media comes out the rear exit. When closed, all media is sent to the output bin on top of the printer.
Loading Paper
23
Print Media Guidelines

Selecting the right paper or other media reduces printing problems. For best print quality, try a sample of the paper or specialty media you are considering before buying large quantities.
CAUTION: Your product uses a printing process that heats the print media, and heat can cause certain media to release emissions. You must understand the section in your operating instructions that discusses the guidelines for selecting appropriate print media to avoid the possibility of harmful emissions.
Use 20 lb (75 g/m2) xerographic paper. Use transparencies designed for laser printers. Use paper labels designed for laser printers. Use envelopes made from 24 lb (90 g/m2) bond paper. To reduce paper jams, do not use envelopes that: Have excessive curl Are stuck together Are damaged in any way Contain windows, holes, perforations, cutouts, or embossing Use metal clasps, string ties, or metal folding bars Have postage stamps attached Have any exposed adhesive when the flap is in the sealed position
Use card stock with a maximum weight of 163 g/m2 and a minimum size of 3 x 5 in. (76.2 x 127 mm).

Printing on Both Sides of the Paper (Manual Duplex)

Printing on both sides of the paper reduces printing costs. Although you can use Tray 1 or the 550-sheet tray to print the first side of the duplex job, only use Tray 1 to print the second side. You can choose how you want your job duplexed: Long Edge or Short Edge. Long Edge means pages are bound along the long edge of the page (left edge for portrait, top edge for landscape).
Short Edge means pages are bound along the short edge of the page (top edge for portrait, left edge for landscape).

Load the paper back into the printer with the already-printed side up and the top of the page toward the front of the tray.
Printing Multiple Page Images on One Page (N-Up Printing)

The Multipage Printing (N-up) setting is used to print multiple page images on a single page. For example, 2-up means two page images are printed on one page, 4-up means four page images are printed on one page, and so on. The printer uses the Multipage Order, Multipage View, and Multipage Border settings to determine the order and orientation of the page images, and whether a border is printed around each page image.
1 2 3
From the computers software application, select File Print. Click Properties (or Options, Printer, or Setup, depending on the application) to view the printer driver settings. From the Page Layout tab, select the number of images per sheet (from the Multipage printing section) and the orientation you would like the paper to have. The positioning depends on the number of images and whether the images are portrait or landscape in orientation.

If the document contains many pages, a booklet may have too many pages to fold easily. If you are printing a fairly large booklet, you might want to use the Sheets per Bundle option to specify how many physical pages are put into one bundle. The printer will print the necessary number of bundles, which you can then bind into one booklet. Printing in bundles helps the outside edge of the pages line up more evenly.

Maintaining Your Printer
Replacing the Toner Cartridge
You can determine approximately how much toner is left in your cartridge by printing the printer settings configuration sheet. This helps you decide when you might need to order replacement supplies. For more information on printing the printer settings configuration sheet, see "Printing the Printer Settings Configuration Sheet" on page 12. Also, the Toner low light sequence is displayed when the toner cartridge is nearly empty. You can still print for a short time while this sequence is displayed, but print quality begins to decrease as the toner level decreases.
When the Toner low light sequence appears or when you experience faded print, remove the toner cartridge. Firmly shake it side-to-side and front-to-back several times to redistribute the toner, and then reinsert it and continue printing. Repeat this procedure multiple times until the print remains faded. When the print remains faded, replace the toner cartridge.
55
To replace the toner cartridge:

1
CAUTION: When replacing a toner cartridge, do not leave the new cartridge exposed to direct light for an extended period of time. Extended light exposure can cause print quality problems. 2
Press the button on the base of the toner cartridge assembly.
56
Pull the toner cartridge up and out using the handle.
4 5
Unpack the new toner cartridge. Rotate the cartridge in all directions to distribute the toner.
57
Install the new toner cartridge by aligning the white rollers on the toner cartridge with the white arrows on the tracks of the imaging drum and pushing the toner cartridge in as far as it will go. The cartridge clicks into place when correctly installed.
Close the front cover.
58
Replacing the Imaging Drum

You can determine approximately how full the imaging drum is by printing the printer settings configuration sheet. This helps you decide when you might need to order replacement supplies. For more information on printing the printer settings configuration sheet, see "Printing the Printer Settings Configuration Sheet" on page 12. To ensure print quality and to avoid damage to the printer, the printer stops operating after the iamging drum has reached a maximum of 40,000 pages. The printer automatically notifies you before the imaging drum reaches this point. For more information, see Understanding the Operator Panel Lights in your Users Guide. When you first receive the Replace imaging drum light sequence you should immediately order a new imaging drum. While the printer may continue to function properly after the imaging drum has reached its official end-of-life (approximately 30,000 pages), print quality begins to significantly decrease until the imaging drum stops operating at the maximum of 40,000 pages.
NOTICE: When replacing an imaging drum, do not leave the toner cartridge or the new imaging drum exposed to direct light for an extended period of time. Extended light exposure can cause print quality problems.
59
To replace the imaging drum:

1
Pull the toner cartridge assembly out of the printer by pulling on the toner cartridge handle.
Place the toner cartridge assembly on a flat, clean surface.
60
Press the button on the base of the toner cartridge assembly.
Pull the toner cartridge up and out using the handle.
5 6
Unpack the new imaging drum. Install the toner cartridge into the new toner cartridge assembly by aligning the white rollers on the toner cartridge with the white arrows on the tracks of the imaging drum and pushing the toner cartridge in as far as it will go. The cartridge clicks into place when correctly installed.
61
Install the toner cartridge assembly into the printer by aligning the blue arrows on the guides of the toner cartridge assembly with the blue arrows on the tracks in the printer and pushing the toner cartridge assembly in as far as it will go.
After you replace the imaging drum, you should reset the imaging drums counter. To reset the counter, press and hold the Cancel button until all lights flash in sequence.
NOTICE: Resetting the imaging drum's counter without replacing the imaging drum may damage your printer and void your warranty. 9

Dell's service contracts can be found online at www.dell.ca or by calling Customer Care at 1-800-847-4096. If you purchased through us a service contract with one of our third-party service providers, please refer to that contract (mailed to you with your packing slip or invoice) for details on how to obtain service.
How will you fix my product?

We use new and refurbished parts made by various manufacturers in performing warranty repairs and in building replacement parts and systems. Refurbished parts and systems are parts or systems that have been returned to Dell, some of which were never used by a customer. All parts and systems are inspected and tested for quality. Replacement parts and systems are covered for the remaining period of the limited warranty for the product you bought. Dell owns all parts removed from repaired products.
May I transfer the limited warranty?

Limited warranties on systems may be transferred if the current owner transfers ownership of the system and records the transfer with us. The limited warranty on Dell-branded memory may not be transferred. You may record your transfer by going to Dells website. For Canada-purchased computers (in-country transfers) and to transfer from one customer to another, go to www.dell.ca/ca/en/gen/topics/segtopic_ccare_nav_013_ccare.htm For out-of-country transfers (outside of the original country of purchase), go to www.dell.com/us/en/biz/topics/sbtopic_ccare_nav_016_ccare.htm
If you do not have Internet access, call Dell at 1-800-847-4096 (Home Consumer customers) or 1-800-326-9463 (Corporate Commercial or Government customers).

Appendix
All requests to transfer ownership are at Dell's sole discretion. All such transfers will be subject to the terms and conditions of the original service or limited warranty agreement and Dell's terms and conditions of sale located at www.dell.com. Dell cannot guarantee the authenticity of the products, limited warranties, service or support, or the accuracy of the listings of products you purchase from a third party.
Total Satisfaction Return Policy (Canada Only)

If you are an end-user customer who bought new products directly from Dell, you may return them to Dell up to 30 days after you receive them for a refund or credit of the product purchase price. If you are an end-user customer who bought reconditioned or refurbished products from Dell, you may return them to Dell within 14 days after the date on the packing slip or invoice for a refund or credit of the product purchase price. In either case, the refund or credit will not include any shipping and handling charges shown on your packing slip or invoice and will be subject to a fifteen percent (15%) restocking fee, unless otherwise prohibited by law. If you are an organization that bought the products under a written agreement with Dell, the agreement may contain different terms for the return of products than specified by this policy. To return products, you must call Dell Customer Service at 1-800-847-4096 to receive a Credit Return Authorization Number. To expedite the process of your refund or credit, Dell expects you to return the products to Dell in their original packaging within 5 days of the date that Dell issues the Credit Return Authorization Number. You must also prepay shipping charges and insure the shipment or accept the risk of loss or damage during shipment. You may return software for a refund or credit only if the sealed package containing the diskette(s) or CD(s) is unopened. Returned products must be in as-new condition, and all of the manuals, diskette(s), CD(s), power cables, and other items included with a product must be returned with it. For customers who want to return, for refund or credit only, either application or operating system software that has been installed by Dell, the whole system must be returned, along with any media and documentation that may have been included in the original shipment. The "Total Satisfaction" Return Policy does not apply to Dell | EMC storage products. It also does not apply to products purchased through Dell's Software and Peripherals division. For those products, please instead refer to Dell's Software and Peripheral's then-current return policy (see the following section, "Dell Software and Peripherals [Canada Only]").
Dell Software and Peripherals (Canada Only)

Third-Party Software and Peripherals Products
Similar to other resellers of software and peripherals, Dell does not warrant third-party products. Third-party software and peripheral products are covered by the warranties provided by the original manufacturer or publisher only. Third-party manufacturer warranties vary from product to product. Consult your product documentation for specific warranty information. More information may also be available from the manufacturer or publisher. While Dell offers a wide selection of software and peripheral products, we do not specifically test or guarantee that all of the products we offer work with any or all of the various models of Dell computers, nor do we test or guarantee all of the products we sell on the hundreds of different brands of computers available today. If you have questions about compatibility, we recommend and encourage you to contact the third-party software and peripheral product manufacturer or publisher directly.
Dell-Branded Peripheral Products

Dell does provide a limited warranty for new Dell-branded peripheral products (products for which Dell is listed as the manufacturer) such as monitors, batteries, memory, docking stations, and projectors. To determine which limited warranty applies to the product you purchased, see the Dell packing slip or invoice and/or the product documentation that accompanied your product. Descriptions of Dell's limited warranties are described in preceding sections.

Dell Printer Consumables Limited Warranties

The following sections describe the limited warranty for printer consumables (ink cartridges, toner cartridges, photo print packs, and photo paper) for Dell-branded printers, for the U.S., Canada, and Latin America. Refer to the appropriate limited warranty accordingly.
Consumables Limited Warranty (U.S. and Canada Only)

Dell Inc. warrants to the original purchaser of genuine Dell-branded toner cartridges that they will be free from defects in material and workmanship for the life of the cartridge and that for genuine Dell-branded ink cartridges, photo print packs and photo paper, they will be free from defects in material and workmanship for two years beginning on the date of invoice. If this product proves defective in either material or workmanship, it will be replaced without charge during the limited warranty period if returned to Dell. You must first call our toll-free number to get your return authorization. In the U.S., call 1-800-822-8965; in Canada, call 1-800-387-5757. If we are not able to replace the product because it has been discontinued or is not available, we will either replace it with a comparable product or reimburse you for the cartridge purchase cost, at Dells sole option. This limited warranty does not apply to ink or toner cartridges that have been refilled or improperly stored or due to problems resulting from misuse, abuse, accident, neglect, mishandling, incorrect environments, or wear from ordinary use. THIS WARRANTY GIVES YOU SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS, AND YOU MAY ALSO HAVE OTHER RIGHTS WHICH VARY FROM STATE TO STATE (OR JURISDICTION TO JURISDICTION). DELL RESPONSIBILITY S FOR MALFUNCTIONS AND DEFECTS IN HARDWARE IS LIMITED TO REPLACEMENT AS SET FORTH IN THIS WARRANTY STATEMENT. FOR CANADIAN CUSTOMERS, EXCEPT FOR THE EXPRESS WARRANTIES CONTAINED IN THIS WARRANTY STATEMENT, DELL DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE, FOR THE PRODUCT. FOR U.S. CUSTOMERS, ALL EXPRESS AND IMPLIED WARRANTIES FOR THE PRODUCT, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE ARE LIMITED IN TIME TO THE TERM OF THIS LIMITED WARRANTY. NO WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WILL APPLY AFTER THE LIMITED WARRANTY PERIOD HAS EXPIRED. SOME STATES OR JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS, OR LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY OR CONDITION LASTS, SO THIS LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. THIS WARRANTY COVERAGE TERMINATES IF YOU SELL OR OTHERWISE TRANSFER THIS PRODUCT TO ANOTHER PARTY. DELL DOES NOT ACCEPT LIABILITY BEYOND THE REMEDIES PROVIDED FOR IN THIS LIMITED WARRANTY OR FOR SPECIAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY LIABILITY FOR THIRD-PARTY CLAIMS AGAINST YOU FOR DAMAGES, FOR PRODUCTS NOT BEING AVAILABLE FOR USE, OR FOR LOST DATA OR LOST SOFTWARE. DELLS LIABILITY WILL BE NO MORE THAN THE AMOUNT YOU PAID FOR THE PRODUCT THAT IS THE SUBJECT OF A CLAIM. THIS IS THE MAXIMUM AMOUNT FOR WHICH DELL IS RESPONSIBLE. SOME STATES OR JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
Appendix
101
Consumables Limited Warranty (Latin America Only)

Dell Inc. warrants to the original purchaser of genuine Dell-branded toner cartridges that the cartridges will be free from defects resulting from material or manufacturing process for the life of the cartridge. For the original purchaser of genuine Dell-branded ink cartridges, photo print packs and photo paper, Dell warrants that the consumables will be free from defects resulting from material or manufacturing process for one year beginning from the date of delivery. If this product presents defects resulting from either material or manufacturing process, it will be replaced without charge during the limited warranty period if returned to Dell. In order to obtain the necessary information to enable the replacement, call the appropriate toll-free number. In Mexico, call 001-877-533-6230; in Puerto Rico, call 1-877-839-5123. In cases in which either the production of the cartridge has been discontinued or the cartridge is not available, Dell reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to choose between replacing it by a similar product or reimbursing you for the purchase cost. This limited warranty does not apply to ink or toner cartridges that have been refilled or to defects resulting from misuse, abuse, accident, negligence, mishandling, improper storage or exposure to inappropriate environments. Dells liability for the malfunction or defect of hardware after the period of the legal warranty (and specifically the period of the legal warranty of defective products stated in the consumer protections rules), is limited to either the substitution of the product or the reimbursement as stated above. This warranty coverage terminates if you sell or otherwise transfer this product to a third party. Dell does not accept any additional liability for patrimonial, emotional or any other kind of damage caused to the consumer and/or to a third party, which exceeds the established liability either in this limited warranty or in legal rules that may apply.
Export Regulations
Customer acknowledges that these Products, which may include technology and software, are subject to the customs and export control laws and regulations of the United States (U.S.) and may also be subject to the customs and export laws and regulations of the country in which the Products are manufactured and/or received. Customer agrees to abide by those laws and regulations. Further, under U.S. law, the Products may not be sold, leased or otherwise transferred to restricted end-users or to restricted countries. In addition, the Products may not be sold, leased or otherwise transferred to, or utilized by an end-user engaged in activities related to weapons of mass destruction, including without limitation, activities related to the design, development, production or use of nuclear weapons, materials, or facilities, missiles or the support of missile projects, and chemical or biological weapons.
Dell Software License Agreement

This is a legal agreement between you, the user, and Dell Products, L.P ("Dell"). This agreement covers all software that is distributed with the Dell product, for which there is no separate license agreement between you and the manufacturer or owner of the software (collectively the "Software"). This agreement is not for the sale of Software or any other intellectual property. All title and intellectual property rights in and to Software is owned by the manufacturer or owner of the Software. All rights not expressly granted under this agreement are reserved by the manufacturer or owner of the Software. By opening or breaking the seal on the Software packet(s), installing or downloading the Software, or using the Software that has been preloaded or is embedded in your product, you agree to be bound by the terms of this agreement. If you do not agree to these terms, promptly return all Software items (disks, written materials, and packaging) and delete any preloaded or embedded Software. You may use one copy of the Software on only one product at a time. If you have multiple licenses for the Software, you may use as many copies at any time as you have licenses. "Use" means loading the Software in temporary memory or permanent storage on the product. Installation on a network server solely for distribution to other products is not "use"
102
Appendix
if (but only if) you have a separate license for each product to which the Software is distributed. You must ensure that the number of persons using the Software installed on a network server does not exceed the number of licenses that you have. If the number of users of Software installed on a network server will exceed the number of licenses, you must purchase additional licenses until the number of licenses equals the number of users before allowing additional users to use the Software. If you are a commercial customer of Dell or a Dell affiliate, you hereby grant Dell, or an agent selected by Dell, the right to perform an audit of your use of the Software during normal business hours, you agree to cooperate with Dell in such audit, and you agree to provide Dell with all records reasonably related to your use of the Software. The audit will be limited to verification of your compliance with the terms of this agreement. The Software is protected by United States copyright laws and international treaties. You may make one copy of the Software solely for backup or archival purposes or transfer it to a single hard disk provided you keep the original solely for backup or archival purposes. You may not rent or lease the Software or copy the written materials accompanying the Software, but you may transfer the Software and all accompanying materials on a permanent basis as part of a sale or transfer of the Dell product if you retain no copies and the recipient agrees to the terms hereof. Any transfer must include the most recent update and all prior versions. You may not reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the Software. If the package accompanying your product contains compact discs, 3.5", and/or 5.25" disks, you may use only the disks appropriate for your product. You may not use the disks on another computer or network, or loan, rent, lease, or transfer them to another user except as permitted by this agreement.
Limited Warranty
Dell warrants that the Software disks will be free from defects in materials and workmanship under normal use for ninety (90) days from the date you receive them. This warranty is limited to you and is not transferable. Any implied warranties are limited to ninety (90) days from the date you receive the Software. Some jurisdictions do not allow limits on the duration of an implied warranty, so this limitation may not apply to you. The entire liability of Dell and its suppliers, and your exclusive remedy, shall be (a) return of the price paid for the Software or (b) replacement of any disk not meeting this warranty that is sent with a return authorization number to Dell, at your cost and risk. This limited warranty is void if any disk damage has resulted from accident, abuse, misapplication, or service or modification by someone other than Dell. Any replacement disk is warranted for the remaining original warranty period or thirty (30) days, whichever is longer. Dell does NOT warrant that the functions of the Software will meet your requirements or that operation of the Software will be uninterrupted or error free. You assume responsibility for selecting the Software to achieve your intended results and for the use and results obtained from the Software. DELL, ON BEHALF OF ITSELF AND ITS SUPPLIERS, DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, FOR THE SOFTWARE AND ALL ACCOMPANYING WRITTEN MATERIALS. This limited warranty gives you specific legal rights; you may have others, which vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. IN NO EVENT SHALL DELL OR ITS SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES WHATSOEVER (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF BUSINESS PROFITS, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, LOSS OF BUSINESS INFORMATION, OR OTHER PECUNIARY LOSS) ARISING OUT OF USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE SOFTWARE, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. Because some jurisdictions do not allow an exclusion or limitation of liability for consequential or incidental damages, the above limitation may not apply to you.
Appendix
103
U.S. Government Restricted Rights

The software and documentation are "commercial items" as that term is defined at 48 C.F.R. 2.101, consisting of "commercial computer software" and "commercial computer software documentation" as such terms are used in 48 C.F.R. 12.212. Consistent with 48 C.F.R. 12.212 and 48 C.F.R. 227.7202-1 through 227.7202-4, all U.S. Government end users acquire the software and documentation with only those rights set forth herein. Contractor/manufacturer is Dell Products, L.P One Dell Way, Round Rock, Texas 78682. .,
General
This license is effective until terminated. It will terminate upon the conditions set forth above or if you fail to comply with any of its terms. Upon termination, you agree that the Software and accompanying materials, and all copies thereof, will be destroyed. This agreement is governed by the laws of the State of Texas. Each provision of this agreement is severable. If a provision is found to be unenforceable, this finding does not affect the enforceability of the remaining provisions, terms, or conditions of this agreement. This agreement is binding on successors and assigns. Dell agrees and you agree to waive, to the maximum extent permitted by law, any right to a jury trial with respect to the Software or this agreement. Because this waiver may not be effective in some jurisdictions, this waiver may not apply to you. You acknowledge that you have read this agreement, that you understand it, that you agree to be bound by its terms, and that this is the complete and exclusive statement of the agreement between you and Dell regarding the Software.
Regulatory Notices
Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) is any signal or emission, radiated in free space or conducted along power or signal leads, that endangers the functioning of a radio navigation or other safety service or seriously degrades, obstructs, or repeatedly interrupts a licensed radio communications service. Radio communications services include but are not limited to AM/FM commercial broadcast, television, cellular services, radar, air-traffic control, pager, and Personal Communication Services (PCS). These licensed services, along with unintentional radiators such as digital devices, including computers, contribute to the electromagnetic environment. Electromagnetic Compatibility is the ability of items of electronic equipment to function properly together in the electronic environment. While this product has been designed and determined to be compliant with regulatory agency limits for EMI, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause interference with radio communications services, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, you are encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: Reorient the receiving antenna. Relocate the product with respect to the receiver. Move the product away from the receiver. Plug the product into a different outlet so that the product and the receiver are on different branch circuits.
If necessary, consult a Dell Technical Support representative or an experienced radio/television technician for additional suggestions. Dell products are designed, tested, and classified for their intended electromagnetic environment. These electromagnetic environment classifications generally refer to the following harmonized definitions: Class A is typically for business or industrial environments. Class B is typically for residential environments.
Information Technology Equipment (ITE), including devices, expansion cards, printers, input/output (I/O) devices, monitors, and so on, that are integrated into or connected to the product should match the electromagnetic environment classification of the product.
104
Appendix
A Notice About Shielded Signal Cables: Use only shielded cables for connecting devices to any Dell device to reduce the possibility of interference with radio communications services. Using shielded cables ensures that you maintain the appropriate Electromagnetic Compatibility classification for the intended environment. For parallel printers, a cable is available from Dell. If you prefer, you can order a cable from Dell on the World Wide Web at www.dell.com/supplies. Most Dell products are classified for Class B environments. However, the inclusion of certain options may change the rating of some configurations to Class A. To determine the electromagnetic classification for your computer or device, see the following sections specific for each regulatory agency. Each section provides country-specific Electromagnetic Compatibility/EMI, telecommunications, wireless, or product safety information.
